Hello my readers. This story has been reedited as of 2018. The story is still the same, just a bit longer and more detail. Also hopefully better. As always enjoy and review!
Suspension.
I was given 3 weeks of suspension like a kid in high school who pulled the fire alarm. I wasn't pissed that I was suspended, no, I was pissed cause I got caught.
See, the last couple of weeks everyone at Umbrella Corporation was being overly paranoid because of recent events with the Arklay Mountains incident involving a couple of S.T.A.R.S. Officers. Paranoid that there was a group of people out there trying to expose the shady shit they were doing behind closed doors.
Their paranoia was right, I was part of that group. I was hired by Matthew Addison and his sister Lisa Addison. They wanted me to help them bring Umbrella down. I worked security I could easily get access to areas that were off limits to them. We needed to get proof of the viral weapons they were creating in their labs. When they approached me at first I said no, but they knew my families history with the corporation.
I was caught trying to get into one of the labs, claiming I was looking for someone without a badge. That's when they suspended me, they couldn't prove that there was someone that was unauthorized on the premises but they also couldn't prove I was lying.
So, I sat in my apartment for two weeks. Watching TV, keeping an eye on the news and contacting the people within my group. I had made the decision when this was all over, after we had brought Umbrella down I was out of here. I would move far away from Raccoon City and start somewhere new.
I had contact with everyone until a day or so ago when everything went silent. I had received one message from Matthew before that. All it said was 'It's happening now.' It wasn't in our plan and it didn't make any sense. But within 24 hours of receiving the message I got a phone call from my superior officer asking me to come into work. That my suspension had been lifted and I was needed as soon as possible. I sat in a debriefing room for four hours while our superior officers explained that there had been an accident at one of the facilities. Specifically the one where only myself and the others in the room were over security for, the Hive. There had been a biohazard situation where someone dropped an unknown vial and everyone died. They had sent in a team to investigate but they were attacked by creatures.
They had called us in for assistance in an evacuation process for all the remaining scientists and workers for Umbrella Corporation. They even went as far as calling in the Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service better known as the U.B.C.S. to help with the evacuation process.
I sat there knowing we were only given a fraction of the truth of what was actually happening. But I knew if the rats were abandoning ship… we should too.
